In our dining room, there was a small hole in the floorboards.I had to lift the boards one day, and in the dust beneath the hole were these eight random objects. Two mother of pearl buttons, a 'five-stone', a dolls head and four 'jacks' (or marbles).Our house was built in 1897 for Sarah Ann Bell, her husband John Bell, and their nine children, some of whom, it appears, lost a few of their toys.
